Biology
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]3 years ago

Surface tension in water owes to the fact that water molecules attract one another, as each molecule forms a bond with the ones in its vicinity. ... This inward net force causes the molecules on the surface to contract and to resist being stretched or broken.

What is "static pressure" in Hearing Science? <br><br> I will mark brainliest!
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

It has long been known that static pressure affects middle-ear function and conventional tympanometry uses variations in static pressure for clinical assessment of the middle ear. Middle-ear under-pressures tend to reduce the velocity magnitude more than do middle-ear over pressures.

The effect of middle-ear static pressure on the acoustic response of both structures is similar in that non-zero middle-ear static pressures generally reduce the velocity magnitude of the two membrane components in response to sound stimuli.

Why are fences put along some beaches ?
kvv77 [185]

The answer is; B

Sometimes winds carry the sand of the beaches causing erosion. The fences act as breakers of this wind erosion. As wind tries to carry the sand, they encounter the fence and 'break'. Therefore, the sand is deposited along the fence forming a sand dune. These dunes also form protection from storm surges.
